Press Release

November 6, 2023

Dubai: With the current travel reality as complex as ever[1], International SOS, the world's leading
health and security services company, is thrilled to announce its development of an enhanced safe
accommodation service. This will support clients in providing travelling staff with secure accommodation
options, a key component of wider travel risk management plan, as specified by ISO 31030:2021. The

enhanced offering from International SOS includes a tailored workforce resilience subscription, 24/7
assistance, expert consulting services and a brand-new partnership with Safehotels, the world’s leading
hotel safety and security certification company.

Increasing rates of travel, post-Covid restrictions, and recent geopolitical tensions have amplified the

need for businesses to assess the safety and security of the accommodation used by their travelling
workforce and assignees. While most stays occur without incident, the importance of reviewing
accommodation risks has been highlighted in recent years by terrorism becoming more prevalent[2],
including attacks against hotels.
